After having 4 signature sneakers with Converse in the beginning of his career, Dwyane Wade later became the poster child for Jordan Brand’s Team Jordan. And after a few years of putting up MVP-esque stats while sporting the Jordan Signature 2010 and 2011′s D-Wade is finally receiving his own Signature Series with Jordan Brand, The Air Jordan Fly Wade.

D-Wade joins point guard Chris Paul (CP3) and draft-mate Carmelo (Melo) Anthony as one of the few NBA athletes to have their own sneaker on Team Jordan. Coming just in time for the NBA playoffs the Fly Wade’s seem to be post season ready. As the regular season seems to leave it’s usual wears and tears, the Air Jordan Fly Wade’s provide that light as a feather step you need by becoming the lightest sneaker ever released by Air Jordan, weighing in at just over 13 oz.

As foreshadowed in the campaign for the Air Jordan 2011, Dwyane Wade’s alter ego Agent D3 is the inspiration behind the “D3″ target logo found on on the tongue of the Fly Wade’s.

As D-Wade was seen rocking the Air Jordan 2011′s throughout the regular season it’s no surprise that many of the 2011′s influences can be found in the Fly Wade. One of them being the 3-dimensional Jumpman logo found on the securely snug fitting heel cap of the shoe.

Along with the new Elephant crackle pattern outsole that provides a superior grip on the hardwood the Fly Wade’s take a blast from the past by being one of the few Signature Jordan’s since the AJ6 to expose the Air Max unit. The Air Jordan Fly Wade’s overall provide the perfect blend of light weight functionality, lock-down heel and forefoot stability, and comfort (due to the full Phylon midsole).
